Cons
"We encountered stability issues, especially on external functionality around its RFP capabilities.""Our customers expect that a page will open within one second, and I doubt this will happen. Also, opening documentation takes time. Fixing this will help the customer and help to meet their expectations.""The user interface could be improved by making it more user-friendly.""Due to our business, some setups were very complex.""External portal functionality with suppliers and customers needs improvement."

"I would like to see the licensing policy simplified.""The solution needs to share more information in terms of training. There needs to be more documentation involved to help those who are completely new to the product.""I noticed a few areas for improvement in WebLogic Suite. If you use the pure play higher-availability features, then yes, it can be switched over to the other system from the high-availability point of view, but that comes with a certain price. If you prefer simpler high-availability, that requires manual intervention. I'd also recommend a tuning feature in WebLogic Suite because it's not self-tuning, and this means you need thorough expertise to do the tuning and leverage the best benefit out of it. If Oracle makes WebLogic Suite automated or self-driven, then it becomes a wonderful product, similar to what Oracle did for the Autonomous Database which is self-driven or has an autonomous operating system. If automation is added in the next release of the solution, combined with more affordable pricing, though as a technical person, I know how much goes into having automation as a feature, and it could be difficult to lower the price, but if Oracle can do it, then that would make WebLogic Suite better.""The support is not good.""The content search is not easy.""I rate the scalability of WebLogic Suite an eight out of ten.""Support could be better. The expertise when we have some Oracle WebLogic issues and challenges is not there. The issues are not being addressed in time. This really needs to be improved going forward.""This solution would benefit from the inclusion of a ripple start function for clusters."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "​SAP is not for every business. It depends on what is required. SAP is always going to be expensive​."
  • "Because India is so competitive in the IT world, people will start to move away from SAP's pricing because they have a market monopoly. Soon, they will start losing the monopoly part to open source and other things. I don't think their monopoly will run for more than three to four years because people are getting away from these monopolies."
  • "The cost of this solution is high."
